Hair salons as a promising space to provide HIV and sexual and reproductive health services for young women in Lesotho
This study suggests that offering HIV/SRH services in hair salons in Lesotho seems to be largely acceptable and feasible with some addressable barriers, based on survey data. A pilot intervention, guided by this study's recommendations, is warranted to translate these findings into practice
Moving forward
Highly effective early autistic activism gave considerable impetus to changes in the way autism research is conceived and carried out, notably through Critical Autism Studies (CAS). Little, though, has been similarly formalised challenging pathology-driven views of other forms of neurodivergence in research. However, there are increasing signs that this is changing, perhaps most particularly concerning ADHD. Here, we propose a tentative outline f…
Researching autism, becoming disabled
Here, I take Eli Clare's concept of "brilliant imperfection" as a jumping-off point to reflect on how my PhD research into autistic experiences of intimacy led to an engagement with -and understanding of -my own relationship to disability.Life imitated research as participants' narratives held a mirror up to my own experience of growing up gay, my life with HIV, and my adult diagnosis of ADHD.Far from being a dry scholarly exercise, the PhD journ…
Sensory strangers
Sensory experience is subject to considerable political and normative pressure, often felt, but rarely theorised. Taking as a starting point Simmel’s conceptualisation of the stranger, whose ‘position as a full-fledged member (of society) involves both being outside it and confronting it’, we propose neurodivergence as a form of Simmelian sensory stranger-hood, phenomenologically, spatially, and temporally situated as a tool for critical explorat…
Doing it differently
In the current research climate, in which many autistic and autism communities are increasingly calling for a move towards collaborative forms of research, we consider how a loosely formed epistemological community may serve to challenge ‘business as usual’ in the academy. Mindful of the need to move beyond theory, we use this experience to concretely consider how knowledge about autism and neurotypicality can be meaningfully (co)-produced, and m…
Autism and Asperger syndrome in adults
‘Being autistic does not mean that there is anything wrong with you. You are not ill. You are not disordered. You are not impaired’ (64). These words are at the centre, literally and figuratively
